Fodor's Expert Review Banyan Tree Mayakoba

Carretera 307, Km 298, Mayakoba, Quintana Roo, 77710, Mexico

This Thai chain has brought its own traditions to Mexico's Riviera with stunning results—in addition to vaulted ceilings, lounge areas, dining rooms, private gardens, and Talavera earthenware sinks, all rooms have outdoor bathtubs and private 376-foot swimming pools, a unique perk. Guests are always greeted with a bow from the attentive staff, most of whom come from Thailand. An on-site romance coordinator can organize sunset boat tours with a private chef. The spa here is considered one of the best in Mexico, with 16 spa pavilions and state-of-the-art hydrothermal facilities.
